Back to the 80s: Raising my Wolfy Boyfriend-Chapter 571: Boys Change So Much at Eighteen

In this Qingshan Village, who doesn’t know about the outrageous acts committed by An Hanyi.

After his younger brother left, he infuriated their mother to death and then usurped the family estate that belonged to An Mingji, driving him out of the house.

The child suffered for years in the village, barely clothed and often hungry, constantly bullied by the other children, always covered in bruises.

If he hadn’t been lucky enough to meet Gu Jin, who knows how he might have ended up.

Li Xueqin, upon hearing Chen Hong’s words, immediately became anxious: "What are you saying? Our Guoliang wants to marry Gu Jin as his wife, whereas An Mingji is just a hindrance. How can you even compare them!"

Chen Hong couldn’t be bothered to argue with her about these matters.

Although she didn’t understand why Gu Jin was so foolish, taking care of An Mingji, such a grown lad, and being so good to him—so good it puzzled everyone.

Over the years, she had come to accept and become accustomed to Gu Jin’s kindness towards An Mingji.

But Li Xueqin didn’t think so, nor did the other villagers.

Without witnessing it firsthand, one might not understand the extent of Gu Jin’s kindness to An Mingji.

Chen Hong earnestly said, "The An girl’s marriage won’t happen, to be honest with you. Last night someone came to propose to Jin girl, but our old man turned them down outright.

Jin girl will be going to study in Beijing soon; she has a promising future ahead and won’t be getting married now. You’d better drop this thought early."

Having said this much, Li Xueqin no longer wanted to embarrass herself, leaving with a smile on her face but anger in her heart.

After sending her away, Chen Hong continued to dry beans in the yard.

The old master Gu was resting with his eyes closed on a reclining chair under the veranda. He didn’t ask why Li Xueqin had come, but Chen Hong told him everything anyway.

Upon hearing that someone had come to propose to Gu Jin again, the old man slowly opened his eyes.

A pair of seemingly cloudy, yet shrewd eyes, were revealed.

After a moment, he spoke slowly, "Looks like Jin girl should return early."

Gu Jin and An Mingji, strolling through the village, were unaware of what was happening at home.

They bumped into some old acquaintances at the village entrance.

Those kids who used to bully An Mingji.

Five or six boys, led by Liu Dapeng, the son of the village scoundrel, Liu Lao’er.

Liu Dapeng and the others didn’t expect to run into Gu Jin and An Mingji.

Although they had known the two returned to the village, they had avoided them due to the potent memories of the past.

Back then, Gu Jin could pick up one in each hand and beat them up so severely.

The traumatic experience was truly unforgettable.

Even though Gu Jin was now shorter than them, the five or six young men were still terrified.

Now, they had all grown significantly taller—even though not taller than An Mingji, they each stood a head taller than Gu Jin.

Unfortunately, height couldn’t inject courage.

Three years ago, when Liu Dapeng and the other boys beat up An Mingji, Gu Jin retaliated quickly and fiercely.

Some of their parents confronted Gu Jin but were taught a harsh lesson in return, and from then on, their families strictly warned them to stay away from An Mingji.

On that occasion, only Liu Dapeng escaped unscathed.

His mother, not having taken him to confront Gu Jin, often mentioned this over the years, each time feeling utterly fortunate.

At the moment, seeing Gu Jin and An Mingji, the five or six young men instinctively wanted to flee. 𝙛𝓻𝒆𝓮𝒘𝙚𝙗𝒏𝙤𝙫𝓮𝒍.𝓬𝒐𝙢

But it was as if their feet were glued to the ground, unable to move.

Gu Jin recognized Liu Dapeng and the others as those who once bullied An Mingji, though she couldn’t distinguish exactly who was who.

A girl changes at eighteen, just as much as a boy does.
